Judge Cooley'S opinion.
REQUESTING Return Of Passes.

Chicago, March 19.-The Michi.
gan Central and Chicago, and Mil.
waukee & st. Paul railway com.
panies have issued circulars re.
questing holders to return all pas.
ses held by them.
Judge Cooley, receiver of the
Wabash system. speaking about
mileage tickets, said yesterday
that he did not wish to be under.
stood as favoring % cents rate
for mileage tickets, but under the
law the railroads could not make
a different rate for commercial
travellers than for other people
desiring to purchase such tickets.
AS he interprets the law, if o 2
cents rate per mile IS made for
one class of travellers it has to be
sold at the same rate to everybody
else and If such rate was made
over one portion of road it had
to be made the same oyer the en-.
tire line. He did rot approve OF
the action of some of the West.
ern roads in supplying commercial
firms all the tickets they need for
the year at 2 cents rate before
putting the new rate into effect,
He considers that action an eva.
sion of the spirit of the new law.
His company had made no attempt
to force the sale Of commercial
mileage tickets at the present rate
aud has kept their issue at a min
imum, and by April 1 there would
be but few of the old tickets in
the hands Of shippers and mer'
chants.
Judge Cooley in reply to a ques.
ton whether 1000 or 5000 mile
tickets could not be sold to COM
mercial travellers for less than the
rate for 1000 mile tickets, said he
thought not. In his opinion il was
the intention of the trainers of the
new law to make the rate for mile
age the same for everybody, nc
matter how many miles were pur'
chased by the same person. With
the same right he said it might be
claimed that under the new law a
lower rate might be given to q
man shipping ten cars or one car

No Jews, No Prosperity.
louisville Post.l


The late Colonel Gabe Wharton,
two or three yeare ago, was sent
to Mexico by syndicate of New
York capitalists, including Mr..
Sellgman, the famous Hebrew
banker, who wanted to build q
railroad to that country. Colonel
Wharton was not pleased with the
outlook, and reported to tho com.
pany that the prospect did not
justify the expense. Mr.. Selig.
man, who was much interested,
and thought that great fortunes
were to be made in that part of
Mexico, was considerably dissp.
pointed. He thought that per.
haps Wharton had not informed
himself sufficiently on the resour
ces of that country, and so ex.
pressed himself.
Colonel" he asked, "why do
you think our railroad wouldn't
pay9"
Well, the fact is, Mr.. Selig.
man." said Wharton, "when l
went down there to study the in.
dustrial status of the country, |
was Immediately struck by the fact
that there were no Jews there.
Where there are no Jews there is
no business enterprise and no pros.
perity."
Mr.. Seligman was immensely

President Adams on the Interstate
Commerce Law.

Boston. March 10. = Charles
Francis Adams, president of the
Union Pacific Railroad, delivered
an address tonight before the
Commerce Club. He declared
that in all departments of the
Union Pacific a fair, honest, in.
telligent reasonable expression
should be given every provision
of the interstate commerce act.
and the results left to speak for
themselves. He acknowledged
that there were many abuses in
the present railway system that
should be remedied by legislation.
He defended the long and short
haul provision, saying it was just,
and should be law. In regard
to the rebate provision prohibit.
ing rebates, drawbacks and secret
arrangements, he did not hesitate
to put himself on record as saying
it was just, and should be law.
He declared the free pass system
an outrageous abuse, and the most
radical remedy should be applied
to it. He declared the greatest
defect in the law was the prohibi.
tion of pooling. He defended the
pooling system, and asserted that
it benefited the people as well as
the railroads.

WHOLESALE SLAUGHTER.

st. Louis, March ia special
from Texarkana, Ark, says: Two
weeks ago Walter Ridgeley, a
wealthy farmer living twenty
miles north of here, shot and kill
ed two ferrymen who we're trying
to force exorbitant charges out of
o st. Louis drummer for putting
him across the river. Ridgeley
took the drummers part. The fer.
rymen insulted him for this, and
attempted to draw their weapons,
when Ridgeley shot them both
dead. Upon examination Ridge.
ley was discharged. John Muir.
ply, a brother of one of the ferry.
men, and the uncle of the other,
swore to kill Ridgeley on sight.
Last night Ridgely on horseback
was returning home from neigh.
boris, and on entering a narrow
strip of woods was fired upon
from ambush. The horse fell
dead but its rider escaped un.
harmed and rolled over on the op.
posite side of the horse to that
from which the firing proceeded.
The two would be murderers, who
were the uncle and brother men.
toned, thinking that Ridgeley was
dead. approached. When within
about ten feet Ridgeloy suddenly
raised up and shot both assailants
dead in their tracks. This makes
four men that Ridgeley has killed
over a simple ferryboat transac
ton.

Judge Dent was treated with dis.

Great was the Consideration at

spoke in the highest terms Of the
rebel refugees whom he met in his
brief visit to the Confederaey. A.
close guardianship was given to
the preservation of the property
occupied by him, aud it was no.
ticed that there was u laxity of
military protection given to his
interests, and he pursued the oul.

Dent had become double lessee,
whereby Col. Johnson secured q

East Carroll Na.) Banner.l
The failure of the President to
sign the River and Harbor bill has
been a great injury to the people
of the valley. If the River Com.
mission is to accomplish anything
at all its work must be continuous.
While we have always admired
the individuality and selfreliant
Judgment of President Cleveland,
we are forced to realize he is not
a friend to the Mississippi river.
In neither of his messages to Con.
gress has he made mention of this
subject of so much consequence
to the South.
We in the Providence Reach,
particularly, will feel the discon-
tinuance of the works. The dykes
and revetments at Elton did ma.
terial good in preventing caving.
If the work had been maintained
we believe would now be intact.
President Cleveland must show
q more friendly spirit to the South
and West, before he can hope for
their future Endorsement.

AN ICE OVERFLOW.
The Spice sf Life in the "Land Of the
Dzestahs.H

Bismark, March l9.-Tbe scene
here to-day is a dreary one. The
river is still over six miles in
width.
Field glasses are being used
with good results, as numerous
settlers have been discovered,
some of them perehed on trees
and others on floating timber. To
day a snowstorm prevailed.
The current over the new made
channel is running over ten miles
per hour, aud the drift ice shoots
along at terrific speed. A large
bear was seen on a cake of Ice
this morning. The City of Mandon
is completely inundated, and the
water is running through the
streets as ifin a miIlrace.
The worst is coming. The great
rise at Fort Bufurd is now over
halfway here, and will reach this
point some time tonight.
Renewed efforts to break the
gorge at Sibley will be made, but
1t will be waste of dynamite.
The gorge consists of SIX miles of
solid ice wedged into the bottom
of the river, and piled to height
of thirty feet.
March 20th.-The Buford rise
reached this point to day, and tho
water is flowing over the prairie
at a greater depth and more terrif
ic speed than ever. The stream
has risen a foot here to-day, which
rise Is equal to rise of over TWEEN.
ty feet in the upper river, as the
water is spreading over a stretch
of country six miles wide. The
fearful blizzard of yesterday aba
ted last evening and left over six
inches of snow Throughout the
Northwest. This will add to the
food, and as the sun has come out
warm to day the tributaries of the
Missouri are already growing from
the melting snow. The rescuing
party that made the wonderful
journey into the lowlands yester.
day and saved the lives of six men
and one woman, who were perish.
ing on the tops of houses and III
the trees, are the heroes of the
day.
If the present state of affairs
should remain q week the Missouri
would have q permanent channel
cut across the country at least
two miles East of its old course.
The ice is flowing freely to day
and is being lodged in blocks of
from a rod to quarter of a mile in
length on the farms and meadow
land of the settlers. The North.
ern Pacific trestle has not been re.
paired, and it is impossible for the
company to work upon the struc
ture on account ofthe flowing ice.
So rapidly did the food rise at
Painted Woods that two families,
including five children, started to
pack their household goods pre-.
paratory to moving back from the
stream yesterday morning; their
houses were located on low land,
and before they got ready to start,
the water was within six feet of
their houses.
